Presidential Pre-reqs

I think putting any restrictions on who can run is a bad idea. I am also against things like slating committees. I think they are, more often than not, used by an "in-clique" to keep other people out. This has been my experience with many, many organizations, Greek and not.

My chapter has no restrictions on running; the only restriction is that the person needs to be a brother to *hold* a position.

The idea is that the chapter will (hopefully) not vote in anyone who is not qualified. It's simply an unspoken rule in my chapter that we don't vote in presidents who have not held an elected position before.

Well, we don't have a choice, we have to have one. I was on nominating committee once and the person who appoointed it made a point of putting people from different cliques on it. Hate the player, don't hate the game.

That being said, I think slating for a small chapter is ridiculous.
